While I was there a fussy little guy a spectator, like me -came up to the foreman on the job and started making all sorts of suggestions sug-gestions : "Shouldn't it go a little farther left there? . . . AVhy don't you bank the curves more? . . . Those ditches are awful close" . ; . and so, on and on. The foreman took it as long as he could, then asked politely, "How does she look for length?" From where I sit, free advice is called "free" because it's usually not worth much. That little fellow was typical of the kind of "expert" who can't resist getting in digs about how you work, what you wear, why you happen to prefer a glass of beer with your supper. People like that don't mean to be troublemakers . . . but the road to real intolerance is paved with their good intentions. Copyright, 1056, United Stales Breuers Foundation J .OX :?--"- -,v.
